Thanks for the feedback...
To tell the truth I have a large framed poster hanging on the wall of my home office of detail photos of "Myst".
So the seed for the graphics I am playing with, I must admit came from ... you guessed it!
I have no real intentions of making that type of game, (I know my limitations) but I have grown a little weary of shoot-um-ups and want to try a strange unusual make believe world.
Game-Guru, I think might just allow it...
My current map contains 965 entities ( almost all custom buildings, trees and rocks) and the memory bar reports I am using less than I/4 of the bar scale and my FPS hang around 100 +/-.
For anyone who might be interested... "New screen shots"
